Demon ready to roll in Victoria Handicap

Developing sprinter/miler Sistine Demon will be out to continue his career-defining season in the Group Three Victoria Handicap at Caulfield.

On Saturday, Sistine Demon will shoot for a sixth win from eight starts during his 2013/14 campaign.

The gelding broke through for his maiden black type win at Flemington on March 8 and trainer Andrew Noblet gave him a break with a possible Brisbane campaign in mind. He did so well he was back in the stable sooner than planned.

With Damien Oliver unavailable due to commitments in Sydney, Noblet agonised about the choice of jockey before booking senior rider Brad Rawiller over emerging apprentice Jamie Kah.

“It was a tough decision because both have ridden him to wins so he goes well for both,” Noblet said.
